Chapter 729: Chapter 429: Why Is He Upset With Her?
"I really feel sorry for your uncle," she shook her head and turned back into the house.
Ivy Miller followed her in and started taking off her clothes: "Hey, aren’t you going to ask why I suddenly came back?"
"Why?"
The air conditioning was on indoors and it was a bit chilly, so she jumped straight into bed after undressing.
Chloe Wilder was exasperated: "You should at least wash up."
"Oh, come on, don’t be so fussy. You have no idea, the conditions over there were rough, and I’ve gotten used to not showering for days.
It’s so late now, I won’t shower tonight, I’ll do it tomorrow."
She grinned mischievously as she climbed into bed: "You know, all of a sudden, I felt like I was in jail over there.
During the day, the uncle goes to work, leaving me alone in a house with no internet, so boring.
When he comes back at night, he doesn’t talk much, and the house doesn’t feel any different than during the day except for an extra person.
The longer I stayed, the worse I felt, so I just came back.
Honestly, whether I’m there or not makes no difference to him."
Chloe Wilder yawned: "That’s why I said you lack charm."
"What would a virgin like you know? My charm doesn’t attract someone like you."
Times really have changed, it used to be men who went out drinking and fooling around, now it’s women sticking together and being decadent.
Ivy Miller thought the way she and her close girlfriends including Chloe Wilder were being decadent together was definitely not an exception.
"Your uncle was probably blinded and couldn’t take it anymore, so he painfully slept with you.
You seriously think you’re special."
Chloe Wilder turned on her side to look at her: "But really, do you regret it?
You and your uncle don’t have any emotional foundation, doesn’t that feel awkward?"
"It’s so strange, logically I should feel awful.
But I just feel so natural, with him, everything feels natural."
Chloe Wilder sneered: "Maybe it’s because deep down, you see him as your husband."
Ivy Miller nodded, that was exactly it.
"Oh alright, let’s sleep. I have work tomorrow, I’m utterly exhausted.
You are something else, getting off the train and not going home, coming straight to plague me."
Ivy Miller grinned: "I’m not tired anymore, I slept the whole way on the train.
If I go home now, my parents will definitely nag me for days."
"So what are you going to do next, not going home?"
"I’m planning to stay at my secret base for a while, I’ll see when my parents look for me.
Anyway, just sleep, you have work tomorrow, right."
Her secret base was the apartment she rented, besides storing stuff, she sometimes stayed there for a few days.
Since getting married, she increasingly didn’t want to live at home, so she spent more and more time at her secret base.
The next morning, Chloe Wilder had already left for work. After taking a shower, she grabbed her luggage and took a cab back to her rented apartment, turned on her computer, and officially began "working" and taking orders.
The short "trip" was over, she still had to continue doing what she was supposed to do.
She didn’t cook at noon, just ordered takeout and went to the bank in the afternoon to take care of some things.
When she pulled out her wallet, she was surprised to find an extra bank card inside.
This was Henry Sullivan’s card, this card... didn’t she return it to him? How did it end up here?
Puzzled, she took out her phone and dialed Henry Sullivan’s number, it connected quickly, and on the other end, he didn’t sound very pleased: "You’ve been home for hours, why are you only calling now?"
Ivy Miller was a little stunned: "I forgot," but wait a minute, why was he upset with her?
